    [Note: no birth nor death record has been located. This source mentions moving from Standish to Gorham to Otisfield and to Monson, never mentions Minnesota which is clearly documented by census entries cited below. In both cases his son Ebenezer B Higgins is living in the same town, and is found there still in 1865 and 1870. This source claims David ended up and died in Lewiston, for which neither corresponding death record nor gravestone has been located.]
